A Review of Innovative Mechanisms for Collaborative Development of Industries in Urban Agglomerations under the Background of Regional Economic Integration

Abstract

Against the backdrop of deepening regional economic integration, the core of regional economic development has shifted to urban clusters formed by the union of several cities. Industrial collaboration is an important way for urban agglomerations to achieve high-quality development, and innovation mechanisms play a key catalytic role in this. This article systematically sorts out the internal logic of regional economic integration and the coordinated development of urban agglomeration industries and focuses on analyzing the core functions of the innovation mechanism in the three dimensions of industrial division of labor, policy coordination and platform co-construction. By studying the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Greater Bay Area, the author summarizes their innovative measures and main challenges faced in the process of industrial collaboration. Research shows that the development trend of regional economic integration provides a foundation for industrial collaboration in urban agglomerations, while collaborative cooperation between the government and the market, innovation in cross-regional governance mechanisms, and sharing of innovative resources are important driving forces for deepening industrial collaboration in urban agglomerations. The research conclusions reveal the positive significance of innovation mechanisms for the coordinated development of urban agglomeration industries and offer quantified guidance for industrial collaboration in other urban agglomerations.
